The Hayward Gallery’s new exhibition Space Shifters is open from today until the 6th January 2019 and is an absolute MUST visit. The artwork represents works by 20 international and well-recognised artists such as Anish Kapoor, Yayoi Kusuma, Fred Eversley and Richard Wilson, who have brought to life the rooms in the gallery by using art to change or dislocate the visitor’s sense of space.
Discovering London: What’s under the city?

I love London so much that I have made it my adoptive city for the past 20 years and counting. I love discovering London from the inside out. Last Spring I started exploring what is under the surface of the city by going on the fascinating Mail Rail tour. London town has a vast history that dates back to the Romans 2,000 years ago. These explorers chose to HQ the majority of their lives around the area due to the river making an ideal port, and it being a great location for settlement. To this day, it still is and homes over 10,000,000 people.
You can visit London and experience all of the main tourist attractions within a few miles of each other: Big Ben, the London Eye and the Houses of Parliament, to name a few. All of these exciting landmarks carry heaps of historical value and make London an iconic city that is recognised worldwide.
